RFP26006672 Cost Proposal Template.xlsx

This is a Cost Proposal Template for RFP26006672 issued by the Rhode Island Executive Office of Housing (EOH) for the development of a comprehensive Strategic Plan to End Homelessness. The solicitation seeks a qualified vendor to lead a statewide, stakeholder-driven process to organize, draft, and deliver a strategic plan for submission to the Rhode Island General Assembly. The scope of work is structured around seven distinct tasks: Task 1 involves developing a workplan; Task 2 requires a system review; Task 3 encompasses data analysis; Task 4 focuses on stakeholder engagement; Task 5 includes drafting, resource planning, and alignment with national best practices; Task 6 involves creating an implementation guide and finalizing the plan; and Task 7 consists of technical assistance and reporting activities. The template requires vendors to provide unit costs for each task, with a total cost proposed field for the complete deliverable.

The cost proposal template indicates that pricing should be structured by individual task, allowing the government entity to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of each component of the strategic plan development process. The template does not specify a total contract value, funding source, or renewal options, but vendors must complete the unit cost columns and calculate the total proposed cost for all seven tasks combined. This structure suggests that the government intends to evaluate proposals based on a detailed cost breakdown rather than a lump-sum approach, enabling transparent comparison of pricing methodologies across competing bidders.
